Default Looking for a performance Engine

This is my first time modifying a car and i need some help!!! I have an 98 honda civic lx automatic with an cold air intake and 4-2-1 dc header with an catback exhaust. I wanted to do an engine swap but i don't know the different types of engines that would be good for me. Money is not an issue. could somebody give me some advice on different engines.

if money is not an issue


otherwise give some more realistic options othe than money is not an issue. What is the car going to be used for? What type of fuel do you want to run? Turbo of NA? What kinda power are you looking to get? Also the auto to manual swap is a pain.
